My "I got an Idea" Girl Just Joined Her Father in Heaven
Aine Maura Schulmire May 14 1971 - 11 3 2021
I will write here so I can just tell everyone at the same time. My first born child and bright eyed loving girl has passed from this life to the arms of her Heavenly Father and to be with her earthly father. She loved them both with all her heart. Those of us left behind, a loving husband, 8 children and one grandchild that she never got to see, are left bereft.
She was a loving person, who helped others and taught her children to help others. Her 5 siblings looked to her as a leader in the family as the oldest.
Let me tell you some of her history. She loved reading, writing and had joy in service. She was also competitive. She started out playing a matching game with her dad at 3. He would have to work to stay up with her. In school, she would work hard to be the best. She was so upset when she lacked half a point being 10th in her class. She was a cheerleader, a twirler, played the flute, and she ran long distance track.
When she became an adult and married, she embraced being a wife, and then mother. She taught others about having a food storage in case of challenges. She was a full charge bookkeeper for her grandfathers business for years as well as another building company before they moved from Texas to Idaho. Learning was a joy for her, and as life progressed, she became a teacher for her children whom she home taught. When she had a non verbal autistic son, she dove into the world of how to help him. She worked hard at building her children to become good people.
This year she and Russell celebrated their 30th anniversary. They, 3 years before, were blessed to travel to Rome, Italy to join in the celebration of a Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints Temple opening. It was also a chance for Russell to show her where he went to for his mission. They had a wonderful time.
I am not capable of actually showing what a beautiful soul she was, suffice it to say she was a giver, she brought smiles to many faces, and she was a joy to her mom's life from the day she was born. I will miss our two hour talks on the phone, and her bright ideas, and she has a challenge because she didn't finish her stories she was writing... I love her with all my heart... 'Til we meet again my sweetheart... mom
